You move your hand across my skin. All is still. I hear the butterfly's wings flapping, the whisper of grass growing, and blood running to bring life into my cells. There is only an eternal now.
Our skin, the body's largest organ, is not just a barrier but a canvas of human experience. It has the remarkable ability to sense and express emotions in ways that words often cannot. It can heal us and wound us. Touch is a language that transcends verbal communication and allows our most inner self to connect and express itself on a most authentic level.
In a journey through intimate and casual connections, touch and skin play essential roles in regulating our physiology, nurturing profound bonds, and expressing the most genuine form of love.
I invite you to join me in the cycle of experimental gatherings in collaboration with MQ Academy. Each part will start with the visual poetic journey to engage our subconscious, followed by insights from current scientific research, mystical teachings, and personal experience, complete with embodied free-flow togetherness.
About Embodied Expanding Cycle
... to the world, we always remain as children...
In Embodied Expanding, we explore how to navigate the infinite rhythmic process of evolution, defragmentation, and creation intimately bound to living inside the body.
We are all part of nature, intricately woven into its cycles and physical laws. Yet, our highly developed conscious mind, a marvel of evolution, gives us a unique perspective on life. We feel like we stand on the top of a mountain, gazing down at all the creation.
In our lives, we endure moments of pain, upheaval and rapture - both spontaneous and induced - that shatter our illusions and cast us into the deep chasms of our bodily existence with nowhere to go. These cycles of disarray and rebirth are as inescapable as the physical laws governing our flesh. In these moments of profound transformation, we often recognise the thread that binds us to all of existence. This thread, this profound interconnectivity, I refer to as love.
